How am I supposed to believe in love?

When you make it so hard to do?

I don’t ever want to be like this,

but you grow up with it,

it grows on you.



Why do you keep on fighting?

When there is so much more to live for?

You stay together for your children,

you pretend to be in love.



Somewhere along the way you stopped trying.

And now you’re together forever.

How do you expect me to be happy?

If all that surrounds me is sorrow?



I’ve tried to break the silence…

but my voice is never heard.

You think that this is normal behavior,

that you can’t feel pain from words.



My heart is filled with a sadness,

I see my future, I feel the regret.

No, this is not a marriage,

it's just an image you manisfest.



Is this what a marriage will be like?

Where all the love is lost?

I would rather die alone, then miserable…

if that is the cost.



But still you keep on yelling,

almost like you’re yelling at me.

I can’t stand the fighting.

I have no choice but to stand between.



You leave me with doubt filled in my mind,

sadness shadows my soul.

You grow up with it, it grows on you,

eventually swallows you whole.



How can I believe in true love?

I’ve witnessed everything you two go through.

How can I believe my life will reign happiness?

If I can’t believe in you?
